IDF Seeks to Prevent Psychological Victory for Hizbullah
(Ynet News) Yoav Zitun - In the next war with Hizbullah, they may try to infiltrate into Israeli territory across the Israel-Lebanon border to capture hostages and fly their flag for a "victory shot." Lt. Col. Tomer Meltzman, who commands the combat intelligence collection battalion of the Western Division on the Lebanon border, said, "We can create sufficient warning by combining our covert and overt forces in battling a Hizbullah infiltration, and we have new capabilities, which recently became operational, that give us intelligence of higher quality, including by using above-ground sensors to overcome the topographical limitations. Hizbullah is always trying to teach us a lesson, but we're trying to be one step ahead, and we are indeed one step ahead."
